American Experiences: Transitions

Tiffany lies across the hood of a car at the corner of 61st and Eastern Avenue in Northeast Washington, DC. She holds down a job during the week but still tricks on the weekends. "The money is just too good," she says. Tiffany works constantly through the night, in and out of passing cars. The 61st Street stroll is the most dangerous in DC, with regular drive-by shootings, robberies and assaults.
